Trying to Secure Control of the South Caro-
lima Phosphate Industry.

lima Phosphate Industry.
COLUMBUS, S. c., May 2S.-Phosphate
circles in this state are agitated over
well-founded rumors that wealthy and
powerful syndicate, including several
northern mi.lionaires, has been or
gained, in which all the phos-
plate miners and mining companies
have Joined for the purpose of con-
trolling and keeping up the price of crude
rock. Such syndicate was in existence
a year or two ago, but it only embraced
the miners of land rock, the river COM
panies falling to come into it, although
they kept the price up to its figures.
About year ago, however, there was g
depression in the market and the river
companies made a break which was fol-
lowed by the dissolution Of the land
syndicate.
The new plan contemplates the joining
of forces. David Roberts, the well-knoWn
phosphate miner of Charleston, is ito be
manager, and is to be given absolute con-
troll of everythir G in the state, with power
to sell at such rates as he may fix. A ma
terial advance in! price may therefore be
looked for at an early date.
This is one of South Cardinals greatest
industries. Last year the aggregate pro-
duction of phosphate rock was 449, 603
tons, of which ISL, COS tons were exported,
and 6S, 900 tons were consumed by the
local fertilizer manufacturing companies.
The aggregate value of this production
was in round numbers 50, 900 900. Large
quantities of this rock are shipped to
northern ports.

Weather and Crop Bulletin.

| WASHINGTON, June 5.-FOllOWing is
the weather and crop bulletin for the
week ending June (, 1887:
SIGNAL OFFICE, WAR DEPARTMENT,
WASHINGTON, June 5-Temperature-
During the week ending June {. the
weather has been cooler than the average
for the week in all the agricultural dis
tricts east Of the Rocky Mountains. In
the Ohio and lower Missouri valleys
/ Tennessee Kentucky, Virgins and North
Carolina, and the eastern portion
of New England the deficiency of temper
ature for the week ranged from % 20
so or daily average Of about cooler
than usual. The temperature was slightly
in excess of the normal IN Oregon and
Northern California, while in Central snd
| Southern California il was about the
average. IT. mpeTatUre for the season,
from JanuSry L to June I, 1857, differs
| but slightly from the normal temperature
| in the northern states and in the south
ern states bordering on the Atlantic
coast, while the average daily excess ia
the cotton region ranges from l to 2
Rainfall during the week: The rainfall
has been generally in excess in The ststes
east Of the Mississippi river, and in
Louisiana, Eastern Texas, Southern
Missouri and Eastern Kansas Slight de-
tiCIency of rainfall for the week is re-
ported in the upper Mississippi valley,
Minnesota, Iowa, Dakota and Nebrasks,
bat numerous and well distributed show
ers occurred throughout the grain re-
giOns of the northwest, which appear 70
have affected the crops in those sections
favorably. The cotton region has been
favored during the week by excessive

in Northern Louisiana, Mississippi,
Northern Alabama, North and
South Carolina and Georgia.
Although there is large seasonal def
cheney Of precipitation in these states,
these recent rains appear to be very bene-
fetal 10 growing crops, owing to their
frequent occurrence and favorable distri-
bu ion. The weather during the week
has apparently proved favorable for grow
ing crops. Needed rains have occurred
throughout the wheat and corn regions,
excepting in portions of Illinois, Mis-
souri, and Iowa, where light showers have
occurred, and telegraphic reports re-
CeiVed this morning, Sunday, June 3, 1857,
show that showers have occurred
during the past eight hours, and
are likely to continue during
the next fGrty-eight hours in the states
above named. General rains and cold
weather in the hay and tobacco regions in
the states on the Atlantic coast and Ohio
Valley are reported favorable for those
crops. The weather was apparently
favorable for all the growing crops
throughout the south, although reports
from sections of Tennessee and
Mississippi show the cropsswere injured
by hail in some sections ofthose states.

TIE LATEST THING IN HYPNOTIsM.
Strange Experiments Made in q Partisan
Hospital by NJ. Babfnski.

LOnO6n 1eIeRrdp0.
The chief French surgeons and medi-
Cal professors have for some time been
carefully studying the effects of mesmer-
ism on the female patients of the Salpe-
triere hospital, and NJ. Babinski, a clint
cal surgeon of that establishment, has
Just effected g series of experiments the
results of which would seem to open up q
new future for medical science M Bsbinski
tried to prove that certain hysterical SYM
ptoms could be transferred by the aid
of the magnet from one patient to
another. He took two subjects, one 3
DUMB woman afflicted with hYsteria and
the other 8 female who was in state of
hypnotic trance. A screen was placed
between the TWO, and the hystercsl
woman was then put under the influence
of strong magnet. After few moments
she was rendered dumb, while speech
was suddenly returned to the other. NJ.
Babinski also effected temporary cures of
paralysis in the same manner. Luckily
for his healthier patients, however, their
borrowed pains and symptoms did not
last long, and they were saved from a
calamity almost similar TO that which be-
fell DR.. Jekyl when he swallowed too
much salts ard irreVocablY became Mis-
ter HYDE.

The Cotton Crop.

MEMPHIS, Tenn, June The cotton
crop reports for the Memphis district
which embraces West Tennessee, North
Mississippi, North Arkansas and North
Alabama, which will he published TO-
morrow by Hill, F0ntaine & Co, viii
say the weather dur.Eg May has
in the main been favorable to growing
cotton and corn crops. This was special
ly true in the states Of Tennessee, Mis-
sIssippi and Alabama, where reports are
uniformly received Of favorable
weather. In Arkansas general
complaint is made OF TOO
much wet weather, which had the effect
of retardIng the proper working Of the
crops, snd the result is that only two
thirds of the replies received from thst
state report cotton bad in grass. Cotton
stands in the four states named are good
much better than last year, and
as the crop is from eight to fourteen
days earlier, the outlook is much more
promising than for the past three years.
Taken as g whole the report is most ia
vorable and the promises of an aDundant
yield in the district were never brighter

of God is going to be upset, and there are

should say: "Why, captain, what do you

"Oh," says the captain, "we have a peck
of chat that has got into this 5000 bush
els of wheat, and the only way to get rid
of the chsf is to throw all the wheat

wiser than the talk of q great many
Christians who want to throw overheard
all the thousands and tens of thousands
of souls who are the subjects of rcvivals.
Throw alI overheard because they are
brought into the kingdom OF God through
